Abstract

Older populations are more at risk of problems such as temporal arteritis or polymyalgia rheumatica, and these conditions are often first diagnosed in general practice, with usual ongoing care and long-term treatment with oral steroids. These inflammatory conditions are also potential risk factors for other complicating presentations such as transient ischaemic attacks, but the precise comorbid links and how these might influence clinical management in general practice are unclear.
